And is personally my preference. I think it retains the soul of ski boats better than Arc’s more lifeless design. But both are nice boats

[@fredjohnston7022]

​@@Wowi366 I gotcha. I agree, if Arc can build this for $250K, all the gas powered Wake boats are overpriced. In fairness, there is a lot of tech in these boats now - which traditional engine companies are not real good at IMO (they charge a lot of this tech because it costs them a lot - under skilled). Either way, this should drive competition in the wake boat category.

I'm a die-hard fan of my Ranger Boat. You can't beat a Ranger inboard/outboard fish & ski boat. They are the best & they are made in the good old USA in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The electric boat is nice but who can afford it @ that price? No, thank you. It wouldn't have enough power for my family's needs. We go out around 11:30 am, pull the kids in the tube, ski, and other water toys, come in about 5:00 pm, eat & back out to night fish for bass & come in about 5:00 am. It wouldn't have enough time to charge & Missouri Wildlife isn't going to have fast chargers @ceach campsites to charge your $250,000.00 electric boat. Need to research your options on this one Dan. Don't see it taking off in a place like Missouri just yet. I'll stick to me good old girl for right now Dan-o. Have a wonderful weekend & God bless.

[@Spangarangg]

That's a rad boat! Competitively priced, heavy batteries set a nice wake, charge during lunch (if that's even necessary) and go back out!

[@apacheworrier3776]

Yeah, getting stuck on the water because you miscalculated range is totally rad! Also waiting for hours to recharge on beautiful day, is also great! Not being able to recharge at a marina is the best part of owning one of these.

[@lifeasbestfriendsTX]

Thank you Dan for getting in the water for us ❤️

[@RecreationCertified]

Nautique has been electric surf boats for years. They are more money so people typically opt for gas. Battery density is currently the only hold up for electric boats. soon as we have more power density it’s off to the races for cars trucks planes and boats

[@Phil-G1075]

I don’t understand all of these reviews, no one asks about the batteries, replace ability when it dies. That would be the most important thing I would ask is how much does the battery cost when it needs to be replaced and how easily is it swapped out when it does need to be replaced. those are the two most important things as it is the most expensive maintenance item on the boat.

​@bryanciacco4181 he's right. It would take weeks to charge the boat with solar panels on top. Might get 1 or 2 percent in 4 to 6 hours.

[@bryanciacco4181]

@@leetjohnson You do realize boats sit moored up on docks outside for weeks at a time in-between taking them out. So with solar panels you would always come back next weekend to a fully charged boat. Plus the solar panels could keep the cameras sensors and space heaters powered up so while it's sitting for weeks at a time or months at a time during winter you could always keep and eye and monitor your boat and never have to worry about the batteries getting to low or dying or anything freezing. And after every winter it would always be fully charged. Like wtf are you guys even talking about? Obviously solar panels are a great idea. And some boats even have canopies that fold out with solar panels in them expanding the solar panel surface area by 200%. This boat would be perfect for that and even without the folding canopies it's still a good idea even if it takes weeks to charge as I just proved and explained earlier.

Honestly, electric boats are only good for people who: 1.) live on the water 2.)Have a shore station that they can put a charger on 3.) Never want to trailer or take their boat to other locations 4.) only want to go wakeboard/ wake surf a couple of hours Imagine trailering this thing, with the trailer it probably weighs 11-12k lbs. You need a serious truck. It's a great fit for a certain demographic. But there is no way that electric boats will become common (even 5% of boats sold) any time soon.
